Gunner, Thanks for another good one! I’m about 4-5hrs into the scenario. I’m in agreement with TOO’s request for the snakeyes. I’d also suggest some Mk77 fire bombs as well. Wiki refers to conversation with a Marine General. No errors experienced. SPOILER ALERT One of the first things I did was launch a strike on Socotra. 6 Omani Jaguars, 2 F-15E, 2 AV-8B. These were escorted by 2 Av8B and 2 AMRAAM Harriers. While I spotted aircraft on the field none launched. Your surprise caused an issue but with some luck 2 of the GBU meant for the runway were redirected there with 100% success. However, the Omani’s paid the price with 3 downed over the island. All three crew successfully ejected but landed on or near the field.. Couple of small points: In the special missions tab, the one regarding Tornados has Kuwait misspelled. The side briefing under the intel on Socotra, the second bullet point; I don’t understand what you mean there. VP-46 #6, The airborne P-3 had Djibouti as it’s base, intentional? The rest are based at Diego Garcia. For a bit of fun,, I might suggest to rename the South African Airways 727-100C. Wikipedia says SAA stopped operating those in the early 80’s. B727s were certainly operating throughout Africa during the period of the scenario. So, for your upcoming writing project might I suggest something like GAR Air Charters( GAC.). The GAR standing for Gunner-AirborneRifles. . Alternatively, Matrix Air Charters (MAC). Anyway, I’m sure you get the point. I’m enjoying this and appreciate the effort . The book will be a definite first day buy for me! Thanks
